This brochure of the proposed EWARN system can be regarded as a thought starter, developed by RIVM National Institute for Public Health and the Environment, BfR, BAuA and UBA. The main purpose of this brochure is to receive input on the structure and content of the proposed EWARN system for advanced nanomaterials. With the input and feedback, we would like to present an improved EWARN system to facilitate discussions at an EU-level and to bring the system to the OECD WPMN Steering Group on advanced (nano)materials. This brochure does not cover details with regard to which actors should be involved during the different steps of the system and how that can be organised.

The Publication "Towards Safe and Sustainable Advanced (Nano)materials: A proposal for an Early WArning, pRioritisation and actioN system (EWARN)" can be purchased at the website of the National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM).
